Thanks, all. And good choice, **CFOHG**! I was thinking Adolphe Saxe, but the last two IQs scotched that. I’m at a family wedding this weekend, and just found out my dog has cancer. So it’s going to be probably Monday before I start the next round. ---

Sorry for the delay. Picked a letter that we haven’t used in a while, so I am: **Q** Sorry, Discourse isn’t letting me upload a fancy-dan image, even with the tricks I read in the Site Feedback forum. Grrr. Thanks for the kind words about Gus. We ended up having to euthanize the poor doggo, which was one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to do - he was only _six_, poor pupper. ---
